Full Time Hair & Beauty Studies - The New Diploma (All Levels)

Course Code :TBA

Is this course for you
Principal learning: This covers all you need to know about hair and beauty at the level you're studying. You'll study the six industries that make up the hair and beauty sector: hairdressing, barbering, African-Caribbean techniques, barbering, beauty therapy, spa therapy and nail services. This will give you a good understanding of how each of them relate to other industries. Additional & specialist learning: You can take specialist courses in hair and beauty as part of your Diploma. You could, for example, be trained to plait or twist hair, learn themed face painting or study complementary and alternative health therapies. Functional skills: You'll still study English, Maths and ICT as part of your Diploma course. You'll need them to get your Diploma qualification, and for whatever you go on to do next. Personal, learning & thinking skills: These are skills like team-working, creative thinking and self management. You'll need them for life, study and work, and they'll help you to be a success whatever you do in the future. Work experience: On your Diploma course you'll get to do at least 10 days'work experience. It's a great way to use the skills you've learnt in the classroom, and see what work is really like. For example, you could spend time in a spa centre, a make-up counter or hairdressing salon. You might want to focus on the products instead, maybe spending time in a department store to see how they're promoted. Student project: You can do your project about anything you like because you choose the topic, and how you're going to present your work. You'll need to show all the things you've learnt on your Diploma course, but what you do it on is up to you. It could be a written piece of work, like a report; an investigation or something practical like a video on the different hairstyles and looks you find in a culturally diverse area near you.
